It wouldn’t have been worth being upset about missing unless the storm ended up 75 miles west. It’s coming down nicely here in Burke, but it’s not as if we’re getting clobbered.

First to catch and stay with the idea of a big storm. Just so happens it missed the bullseye by 50-100 miles.

Went into the Rec Center for swim practice at 4:45 with no accumulations yet and came out at about 6:15 with nearly 1” on the cars. Fun drive home from Annandale to Burke!

Sorry your backyard sucks.

Because they're getting heavier rates and resulting dynamic cooling.

36 in Burke (325') and in the process of flipping to snow, even with relatively light rates.

I don’t even know where the hell you live anymore.

Personally? I’ve been down this road too many times. Warm temps hold on a smidge longer and rates don’t make up for it. We flip to white rain and end up with an inch of slush on the grass after the sun goes down. I guess the fact that I have to travel at the ass crack tomorrow morning doesn’t help.

37 and moderate rain. Eagerly anticipating my blizzard.

This storm likes to tuck

I’m less concerned about flying out on Monday morning due to snow than I am with wind. Ugh…

Keep politics out of this thread!

When we get 37”, I’ll be stuck at home until after my scheduled presentation on Wednesday.

My flight to Vegas leaves at 7:00 am on Monday. Yay?

11/30: Mix of sleet and light rain for a couple hours before switching to light cold rain. 12/2: Mix early in the morning before flipping to hard, cold rain. 12/5: 2.25”. 2” in the man event and 0.25” later that evening/overnight. 12/13: 1.25” 1/17-18: T - An hour or so of sleet/flurries on the 17th and very light snow on the 18th 1/25: 9.25" - 5" of snow overnight followed by all-day pounding sleet 2/7: 0.25” - Clipper? Frontal passage? Running Total: 13.00”

It's easier to track a potential fail when we just had a pretty unique storm that has left us feeling like deep winter. Those of us not in the SE part of the forum would be jumping off cliffs if we hadn't scored this past weekend.

Finished up the driveway and sidewalk yesterday. It was pretty easy since I had shoveled a couple times during the storm and set down some salt in preparation for getting that last inch for concrete up. I just used a spade to lift it - easy as could be. I'm going out today to dig out a space on the street and also clear out a spot by our mailbox. We had moved both cars into our driveway before the storm so the plows could do their thing, so now it's time to make some room to get one car onto the street and make room for our mail lady to do her job more easily (even if she isn't most personable individual lol).

Not sure where you were when this happened, but someone on Reddit posted that they got the details of a car on 495 that hadn't been cleaned and ice flew off the roof and smashed another car's windshield.

(I was actually kidding, but thanks anyways)

When are we getting recon data for the shortwave in the Pacific? Once that’s ingested into the modeling dataset, it’s going to make alllll the difference…

I love that we just finished a storm yesterday and the next opportunity is close enough that we’ve got NAM analysis on it.

I feel like it took a couple good steps, so I'm not hating it. A little disappointed is all.

The ridge out west is much better at 126. Vort is closed and digging farther south.
